London Cut - run huge. Recommend going one if not two sizes down.

Yes I did go down one. I'm wondering what London is referencing. Obviously the city, but because it's Hedi I assume it's related to some artist.

The entire Travis Scott story is crazy. From McDonalds, Fortnite and Dior collabs to this tragedy and a huge lawsuit.

SA told me a few days ago even he hadn't heard anything about private sale plans yet. Weird?

Sorry, CELINE Might Just Be Better Than Céline

Hedi Slimane famously changed everything, controversially ditched the accent in Céline, and created the house's first menswear collection and fragrances

I don't think it wasn't posted yet, no. Wasn't sure how I felt about the article when I initially saw it (as in, to me it's written in a way where it almost feels like it was just paid for by Celine) but the outfit pic with the Celine jeans looks good. I've noticed other womenswear pieces like cardigans or jackets having a similar gold triomphe chain detail. Hoping the menswear eventually introduces a similar detail for pieces because it adds a certain elegance to the clothing.

On a micro level (no pun intended), Philadelphia's own Kevin Hart was spotted brandishing a Celine variety:

I googled and they're saying that he's between 5'2" and 5'4"?? That certainly means that he's 5'2" on a good day, probably four something.

Is this the washed calf rider? The "padded shoulder" one? or something else?

 

[SirGrotius]

Oh yes, Kevin Hart is great always juxtaposed next to athletes and the Rock.

The jacket looks great either way. It looks like the classic biker that everyone's always posting, the one with Hedi sitting on the stairs from the original Celine campaign. Apparently drapes great but does not have that razor thin cut we've come to love from SLP. The usual debate. I like the accoutrements.

I think you might be right on the fit of it. I've got some muscle on me, so it should fit fairly slim on me regardless. I just don't want it to look like the mrporter one which, according to the description, the model sized up one on. In particular, those sleeves are way too long I feel

 

[SirGrotius]

Man that looks terrible and Porter is usually good with that stuff.

Yeah, there are. Is that different from the "washed calf" one?

I do agree, but I think that's how the kids are wearing their leather jackets nowadays.

Edit: tags have the same product code as the one they're selling on the website currently.

i was just narrowing it down by style but not sure about the “washed calf” part.

 

[RedVelvetWounds]

I actually like how the jacket fits on the model but just not the cut of the jacket itself and I agree that the sleeves are way too long. I understand the historical and practical reasons for it though.

I personally prefer shorter sleeves on leather jackets to show off a bit of sweater/knit sleeve, tattoos, jewelery or just the wrist and hand area in general, on both men and women. The way the jacket fits on Grace in my profile picture takes this to the extreme level but you get my point. Very unpopular opinion though in the leather jacket world.

I think it's very well done here. Dropped shoulder so the jacket doesn't seem small at all, but with a slightly shorter sleeve to show off the wrist and bracelet.

Here are some other examples on dudes.
